Antonio Michael Galongo April 24, 1949 – July 15, 2025 Antonio Michael Galongo, fondly known as Tony by his friends and referred to as Michael by his family, passed away of heart failure on July 15, 2025, at Loma Linda Hospital. He was 76 years old. Tony was born in Rhode Island in 1949 to Michael Archangelo Galongo and Grace Nina Lineham Galongo. He spent much of his childhood in Oregon, which he affectionately called "God's country." He cherished his memories of life on the family farm and often spoke of it with warmth and pride. Antonio was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He is survived by his loving wife, Tracy Senior-Galongo of 34 years, who cared for him faithfully and remained by his side through all seasons of life. He is also survived by his former wife, Linda Yost and children Alicia, Nina, Angela, Crystal, Daniel, Jamie; and by his cherished grandchildren Christoper, Kane, Ashley, Seth, Emma, Jakob, Lukas, Zackary, Riley, Shawn, Trenton, Travis, Isabelle, Jocelynn, and Lillianna; and great-grandchildren. Antonio is survived by his siblings Cheryl Blaylock, John, Jimmy, and Ron Galongo, as well as his step-sisters Barbara, Darlene, Karen, and Susan Dancy. He was preceded in death by his mother, father, sister Patty Galongo, step-brother David Dancy, step-mother Kayron Galongo, brother in law Micky Senior, and in-laws Dick and Leora Senior. Tony worked at SC Enterprises and Prestige Mold for over 30 years before retiring. In his free time, he enjoyed horse races, playing tennis, billiards, bocce, and relaxing with his beloved cat, Mouser, while enjoying their flower garden at their home in Sun Lakes Country Club. He celebrated his 76th birthday this year with gratitude, continuing to show strength and love for his family. Tony will be remembered for his loyalty, quiet humor, sarcasm, continuous laughter, infectious smile, and enduring love for those closest to him.
